LMS Route: Nuneaton to Coventry

Foleshill Station: lnwrf1475

Looking towards Nuneaton as an unidentified LNWR Webb 2-4-2T Radial tank runs in to the station at the head of a local passenger service

Looking towards Nuneaton as an unidentified LNWR Webb 2-4-2T Radial tank runs in to the station at the head of a local passenger service bunker first circa 1910. The nearest passenger appears to be carrying a metal lunch box of type much favoured in industrial areas including mines. The third and fourth person standing on the platform appear to be members of the station staff. At the time of the photograph Foleshill was still an independent 'Rural District Council' which it retained until 1932 when it and other surrounding villages were incorporated into the City of Coventry.
